There's a natural danger zone that occurs in the growth of most businesses. When starting out, you are extremely nimble, with low overhead and little complexity.
Once you become larger and more successful, you have plentiful resources, an established brand, and deep bench strength.
Now, those phases each have their challenges, but it's the in-between phases that are the most dangerous.
It is a time where you lack the resources of a large company and the simplicity of a small one. Most companies that survive start-up mode go on to die a tragic death during this perilous transitional growth phase.
